Permanent Exhibition at the Museum
The museum's permanent exhibition is divided into different epochs, providing a comprehensive overview of the region's literary history. One room is dedicated to the Middle Ages, Humanism, Baroque, Sturm und Drang, Heidelberg Romanticism, and the 19th century. Another room explores modernity and its counter-currents, exile and inner emigration, and the literature of the second half of the 20th century. This layout allows visitors to journey through time and experience the evolution of literature in the Upper Rhine region.

The museum offers an audio guide in both German and French, ensuring that a wide range of visitors can fully enjoy the exhibits. There is also a separate audio guide specifically designed for children and teenagers, making the museum a great destination for families.
